Chapter 451: Won’t Be Able to Keep Her Tongue

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Du Yue and the other two glanced at the old woman but did not intend to answer. There was no need to tell her about it since they were strangers. However, the old woman did not give up and kept chattering behind them. “The two people opposite you also left with the child yesterday. Why are you leaving today? Did you guys agree to move out together? Did the base arrange a new place for you? What benefits did you give the base? Why aren’t you answering my question? If you don’t speak, I’m going to call for help. At that time, everyone will surround you. I’ll see how you’ll leave!”

In the beginning, no matter how much the aunt chattered, Du Yue and the other two pretended not to hear her.

It was only when Du Yue heard her last words that she stopped and turned to look at her.

The old woman was quite happy to see Du Yue staring at her. “Are you scared now? It would’ve been fine if you had just answered my question earlier. Why don’t you take my family with you? I promise to keep your secret!” The old woman excitedly said a few words but suddenly met Du Yue’s somewhat gloomy eyes.

Du Yue placed the bag in her hand by her feet and drew a dagger from her waist. She approached the old woman step by step. “Has anyone ever told you that asking too much about things you shouldn’t ask will kill you?”

The old woman subconsciously took a few steps back, her eyes filled with panic. “You… What do you mean?”

“Do you believe that I can kill you here without anyone knowing?” Du Yue smiled sweetly, but the words she said were very shocking.

The old woman’s face instantly turned pale, and her body leaned weakly against the wall. “I… 1 won’t ask anymore, alright? Don’t do anything. Let’s talk things out.” At the end of her speech, the aunt stretched out three fingers and placed them on her temple while trembling. “I’ll keep it a secret for you. I won’t say another word, okay?”

Du Yue’s knife was pressed against her waist now. “Really?”

The old woman nodded repeatedly. “It’s true. Believe me!”

Du Yue pretended to retract her knife. Halfway through, she heard the old woman scream. “Kill—” Before she could finish her sentence, Du Yue had already raised her hand and slashed the dagger.

The old woman’s scream came to an abrupt stop. In the next second, she began to howl in pain. Blood spurted out and flowed down the side of her mouth, choking the old woman and making her cough uncontrollably. After Du Yue put the dagger back on her waist, she picked up the bag on the ground and said to He Xing and Xia Ju, who were waiting beside her, “Let’s go!”

Xia Ju obediently followed Du Yue for a few steps. She subconsciously turned around and asked carefully, “Did you really kill that blabbermouth?”

“She won’t die, but she definitely won’t be able to keep her tongue.”

The pain of having one’s tongue cut off was not something that could be compared to ordinary pain. It was not easy to find medicine in this situation, but even if there was medicine, it would be useless. She could not take medicine, and she could not eat or drink because of the pain. Although she would not die, she would suffer.

They were in the shelter of the base. If Du Yue really killed someone, it would be a tricky matter. She could only make the old woman suffer a little. People’s mouths and tongues were used to eat and talk, but they always pried into other people’s privacy. It would be a disaster if people like that old woman were allowed to stay. Du Yue’s lips curled into a mocking smile.

Xia Ju understood that Du Yue spared the old woman’s life today not because she was soft-hearted but because she was cautious and did not want to cause too much trouble. Anyway, the three of them were moving away. In the future, they would be out of everyone’s sight.

The three of them quickly walked to the stairs. He Xing walked in front, bringing Du Yue and Xia Ju down. It was no different from when they came down from upstairs. There was an iron door at the end of the stairs. No matter who it was, they had to go through an inspection when they walked to the door.

He Xing swiped his ID card on the card reader, and the person at the door opened the door and let them through. They continued down the stairs and walked through a narrow passage. After entering another iron door, everything in front of them suddenly became clear. This was a brightly lit hall. It was many times more spacious than the rooms and corridors upstairs. There was an endless stream of people in the hall. These people were all dressed exquisitely and neatly. It was as if they had arrived at a shopping mall before the end of the world. The only difference was that the stairs of this building all went down.

When they reached the stairs, Du Yue took a look. There were at least five or six floors below.

He Xing had told them about Area D last night. Here, the higher the status of the person, the lower they lived. With the reputation that He Xing had earned from the robot, they could only live on the floor below the hall. Even so, Du Yue was already very satisfied..
